Sounds sensible. Unfortunately, this one is among many others that get hurt by needless semantic conflicts caused by reusing the old function name and changing the function signature to pass the_repository thru some codepaths, without adding transition macros. I am running out of time today as I need some post-office-move clean-ups before getting organized enough, so I expect I won't be able to clean it up and push it out on 'pu' by the end of day today. Thanks.
